Brown Earth Lyrics

Artist: Laura Nyro
Album: Christmas And The Beads Of Sweat

MorningCame to the windows in the streetSelling red watermelon, 5 cents a piece.

Merry boat on the riverFreedomFresh drams to deliverFreedomOver and over and overI call out your name.

God standing on the brown earth"Get up" want a hollersShooflies in my doorwayWhite dove's gonna come todayOh what a morningI feel so goodOh what a morningOf brotherhood.

Hold me by the lightKitten run the neighborhoodThrough ragamuffin boysAll the world is newBy the light of dayGive with your heartAnd love will come to youKids come in all shapes and coloursTo the cool morning dew.

Merry boat on the riverFreedomFresh drams to deliverFreedomOver and over and overI call out your name.

God standing on the brown earthLovelight in the morningShooflies in my doorwayWhite dove's gonna come today.
